Just how good is the SWB Rav in the snow ? ( side & main roads only ) as i have a deep fear of driving in the damn stuff,

never had a 4x4 before so your help is much appreciated .

Well the RAV4 maybe 4 wheel drive but don't expect to much, having drive to all 4 wheels will give you an advantage over a front wheel drive or rear wheel drive vehicle, but you will be held back by lack of traction from the road tyres, give it a try you may enjoy yourself :) .

Yes it will depend on your Tyres, we've had a bit of Snow and mine coped easily but if I'd been on 'Road' tryes I would have struggled a bit. ;)

The centre diff lock works like magic.......so much for the ''hairdresser car'' as he calls it !!!!! :thumbsup:
